A solution of carbon tetrachloride and acetic acid CH3COOH that is 90.% carbon tetrachloride by mass is boiling at 81.8°C. The vapor is collected and cooled until it condenses to form a new solution

Calculate the percent by mass of carbon tetrachloride in the new solution. Here's some data you may need:

  normal boiling point density vapor pressure at
81.8°C
carbon tetrachloride
77.°C
1.6gmL
873.torr
acetic acid
118.°C
1.1gmL
362.torr

Be sure your answer has 2 significant digits.

Note for advanced students: you may assume the solution and vapor above it are ideal.
